Yes, the hard drive needs to be replaced and you will need a recovery download. Your PC is one that has support of the HP Cloud Recovery found here:

Unfortunately you will need a working PC to make the recovery media. The same criteria if you make the Windows 10 re-installation media found here:

Fortunately, you can use someone else's computer to make either one of those choices.
